US to co-produce AMRAAM missiles in Japan; increased Philippines military aid announced

Japan's Defense Minister announced a new facility in Japan for joint US-Japan production of advanced medium-range air-to-air missiles (AMRAAM), and the US pledged additional security cooperation funds to modernize the Philippine armed forces, citing regional security concerns related to China.

Why it matters. The moves deepen US defense ties with Japan and the Philippines, enhance regional deterrence capabilities, and signal a coordinated response to China's growing military activity in the Indo-Pacific.
